NHL hockey started last night. I didn't pay particularly close attention as I was watching the Orioles get dismantled by the Rangers but hockey talk is open for those inclined. I will try to keep up but honestly I have not really followed NHL that closely since I converted from Leafs fan to Leafs hater over a decade ago. I am interested to see how Bedard does. Other than following NHL to wish ill upon the Maple Leafs, what team should I keep an eye on this year?
I am looking forward to @siggy47 rants about the Islanders though. We need to make the "one man on an island" (siggy talking to himself about the islanders) dream happen.
How about those Texas Rangers? The team has an uncanny knack for looking unbeatable for some stretches and god awful for others. Bad news for AL playoff teams, they look unbeatable now. I expect we will see the battle of Texas in the ALCS and that should be interesting. I am glad the fine people of DFW have something to root for after their football team forgot they had a game Sunday night.
Phillies v.s Braves mini world series shaping up to be everything I hoped for. Too bad it is only a 5 game series.
Dodgers pivot to Ohtani pursuit after today?
Twins put up a fight and make it interesting or run out of steam punching up?
Looking forward to finding out.
Sats for all.
Cheers,
